Comment on An author used GitHub to write a book

Comments

Is this new to anyone? I have been using bit-bucket for writing a book for a couple of months. I figured this is pretty common. The Markdown language is great for writing technical material.

Gregory Gershwin here. I've seen a few people use version control for technical books, but I haven't seen much for fiction yet. And for young adult fiction, I think the examples are slim to none. I'm hoping that opening this works encourages people to think about other ways of writing/telling stories.
